Dr. Seuss presents three modern fables in the rhyming favorite Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories. The collection features tales about greed (Yertle the Turtle), vanity (Gertrude McFuzz), and pride (The Big Brag). In no other book does a small burp have such political importance! Yet again, Dr. Seuss proves that he and classic picture books go hand in hand.

Includes three humorous stories in verse; Yertle the Turtle, the story about King Yertle who wanted to rule over all he could see; Gertrude McFuzz, the bird who wanted to grow a better tail; and The Big Brag, where a rabbit and bear compete over which of them could do things better.
